GEORGE W. CUNNINGHAM, OF GREENE, NEW YORK.

BUTTER-WORKEF.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 244,862, dated July 26, 1881.

Application filed April 1, 1881. (No model.)

To'all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, GEORGE W. CUNNING- HAM, of Greene, county of Ghenango, and State of New York, have invented new'and useful Attachments and Improvements in Butter- Workers, which improvements are set forth fully in the'following specification and drawings.

' Figure 1 represents a top "iew of the machine without the improvements; Fig. 2, a side view of the machine with the improvements. Fig. 3 represents the latch; Fig. 4, the lever; Fig. 5, eye or loop.

A represents the car; B, side of tray; 0, rail upon which the car moves; D, the lever, ratchet, box, and hook, which connects with the loop and forms the hinge, as seen in Fig. 2; E, the latch; F, the crank; G G, the rollers; H, the knob to car; I, the loop; J, the shaft; K, the side iron, and L the box in lever.

The object of my invention is to obtain cheap and reliable attachments by which-the shaft or compressor J may be raised orlowered at the option of the operator.

The nature of my improvement consists in the relative arrangement and combination of the lever and ratchetD, in connection with the loop I, the latch E, the shaft J, and the side iron, K. The shaft J is secured and controlled by the gudgeons passing through the box L. The loop I is securely fastened to car side A by means of screws. The car is then connected to tray 13 by means of side rail, 0, side iron, K, and pulley G. This combination enables the operator to adjust and confine the shaft J at any desired point, is reliable, durable, and cheap, and secures the object in View. The side pulleys, G G, in car side A are to prevent friction between car side A and tray side B.

What I claim as my invention, and desire to obtain Letters Patent for, is-

The combination of lever and ratchet D, with the loop I, latch B, side iron, K, shaft J, and car A, as described and shown in the above specification and drawings.

GEO. W. CUNNINGHAM.
